Answer : The oxygen will appears in the final chemical equation as a reactant.

Explanation :

The given chemical reactions are:

(1)
C(s)+(1)/(2)O_2(g)\rightarrow CO(g)

(2)
CO(g)+(1)/(2)O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)

Now we are adding reaction 1 and reaction 2, we get the final chemical equation.

The final chemical equation is:


C(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)

Thus, the oxygen will appears in the final chemical equation as a reactant.
